Why You Should Gift Batteries & a Mason Jar Christmas Gift
Thank you Mirum for sponsoring today’s post. #EnergizerHoliday
Skip the stocking this year, and stuff all those goodies like Energizer Max Batteries into a mason jar!
There is nothing worse than being gifting a “batteries not included” toy or electronic only to not be able to use it because you have no batteries. I have been there, done that many time in my life.
Actually, Santa really did the best job of bringing me bright, new shiny toys that I could never work because he left the batties out of my stocking.
I would ask my mom for batteries and
A. She would never buy them or
B. She would buy the cheapest ones at the dollar store that would die the same day.
Don’t be that person. If you purchase someone a gift that requires batteries, for the love of all good things add a pack of QUALITY batteries like Energizer Max AA or AAA’s.
No, I am totally not trying to be, rude, or just saying this because this is, in fact, a sponsored post. It really is super true, and kind of a pet peeve of mine.
Plus, right now you can score one FREE $5 reward card when you spend $15 on Energizer Max Batteries at Walmart. You can also earn Kicks via the Shopkick app when you purchase Energizer Max Batteries at Walmart from December 4-16th.
Simply head over here with your receipt handy, and follow the instructions to get your claim processing. By starting a successful claim you can also enter to win the FULL VALUE of your shopping receipt (up to $500).
So, be sure to head to Walmart and get those batteries along with all those wish-list items.
I know my son really wants the Imaginext DC Super Friends Batman Batbox Xtreme. Ironically, my Mother In Law asked me the other day if she should buy it for him, and I was like YES! She always buys the batteries for my kid’s toys so I know I am in good hands there!

Batteries are actually an AWESOME gift idea! So many kids’ toys require batteries, and so many of us forget to gift them along with the toy.
Claudia Krusch says
This is a great gift idea. I always include a package of batteries if my gift requires them. The jar can be used in so many ways after.
Lisa Bristol says
It is so frustrating for kids to recieve a gift and not have any batteries to try it with. I try to stock up before the holidays on all the popular battery sizes.
Jeanette says
That is a cute idea! You need batteries with all the toys that are coming out! This is a fun way to give batteries as a gift! I love putting stuff in mason jars! It makes things look so cute!
Dawn Lopez says
Giving batteries as a present is genius! Especially when you put them in a mason jar with lots of other little goodies as a present. I would love to get this as a gift.
Brianne says
This is such a great idea! I love mason jars for everything!
Jerry says
This really is a great idea because every Christmas someone needs batteries. It never seems to fail. I will be making a couple of these for Christmas. Love the idea.
Liz Mays says
This is a good idea. Batteries are always needed around the holidays! This could save someone a lot of trouble!
Sherry says
I have seen my children open gifts and we would have no batteries on hand. That is the worst feeling Christmas morning when your child can’t play with their new toy because you don’t have any batteries and the stores are all closed.
Alison M. says
I love this idea for the holidays. It’s perfect because everyone needs batteries on Christmas morning for all of their gadgets.
Sarah says
Batteries are an awesome gift in my home. With six people living here and a ton of electronics, we always need batteries.
Scott says
We always gift batteries too! But instead of in a jar, we put them in the stockings!
reesa says
i ALWAYS forget the batteries! Always! Great gift idea here! So simple! And gosh regardless of the holidays, batteries are so needed on hand!
Pam says
Batteries are a must have for Christmas. They are definitely on my shopping list.
Jonna says
We ALWAYS need batteries Christmas morning. This would be great to have under the tree!
Aubrey says
That’s the worst. To get a great gift that you want to play with, but they forgot to buy the batteries.
